Too many coaches have yet to dive in to the science and match it with evidence based findings. They grew while on copious amounts of gear and know what "could work" but not what "must work" when it comes to Hypertrophy. Mechanical Tension is crucial but not the be all end all to achieving Hypertrophy. It's an over simplification too many use to distract from a lack of genuine questioning. Are there multiple factors? Are there layers to tension applied? What about the state of the muscle; pressure wise and fluid wise? If you'd like to truly get uncomfortable to get to the bottom of concepts like these. Everyday topics that we as coaches should know, and yet we struggle to say we could dissect the topic if required. End July, Ben and @coachbaxter make another run at Aus, Melbourne.

Type “STANDARD” for an exclusive invite. Most posts about “shear” get it wrong. People use the word to sound smart, then confuse it with compression, don’t understand where it actually comes from, AND label it. (“its ALWAYS bad”) Most shearing force actually comes from your body. And there is no way to avoid it. But, if you move the contact point of the load closer to the trained joint, while keeping all other variables the same (namely joint torque) shearing force at that joint decreases. What else changes when you bring the contact point closer? Less speed, less momentum. Good for form and control. Can Improve form. Fewer joints to manage. And for many, better “mind-muscle” concetion. Is reducing shear always a big deal? Not always. For Mrs. Jones, it probably doesn’t matter much when the goal is general strength and feeling good. For giant meatheads, not automatically either. Shear is part of how joints with fixed axes work. You can’t avoid it completely, and you don’t need to. What matters is awareness and genuine comprehension. In Applied Hypertrophy Biomechanics, I teach this the right way: We do the math so you can see what shear actually is. We lock the concepts so you can explain them clearly, and understand this elsewhere in the body. Then we cover application, creating context and using real world examples. This is the depth you won’t get in other certifications, clear, accurate mechanics, conceptualization AND application.

Mechanical tension is the main driver of muscle growth, but people get lost on what that actually means and how to apply it. Mechanical tension is simply the pulling force muscle fibers experience when they try to shorten but are resisted in doing so. Only fibers that are active can experience that tension, and how much they experience depends on how much force they’re producing. As movement speed slows, force production goes up. That’s just the force–velocity relationship. To create mechanical tension for hypertrophy, you need two things. High motor unit recruitment, meaning you’re actually activating the top end of the motor unit pool — the fibers with the highest growth potential. And high force in those recruited fibers. This is where examples help. If you lift a cup of coffee slowly, the active fibers are under mechanical tension. But only low-threshold fibers are recruited, and you’ve been using those fibers in daily life for years. They’re already adapted. You maxed those out a long time ago, so nothing grows. If you take a max vertical jump, recruitment is high, but the movement is fast. Shortening velocity is high, force per fiber is low, and mechanical tension is low. Again, no meaningful hypertrophy signal. Resistance training solves both problems at the same time. As you lift weights and approach task failure, your body is forced to recruit more and more motor units to keep producing force. At the same time, the bar slows down on its own, no matter how hard you try to move it fast. That involuntary slowing forces the active fibers to produce more force. Now you’ve got high recruitment and high force in those fibers. That pulling force on those fibers is mechanical tension. And that’s the signal your muscles grow from.

Your “unique training method” isn’t special — it’s just preference. Lately, every coach online seems to claim their system builds better physiques because of some secret mechanism. But if you’re applying progressive overload, mechanical tension, and you’re getting consistently better at the same movements — you’ll grow. That’s it. Where most coaches go wrong is confusing preference with principle. They justify their style as “the best way” when, in reality, multiple methods work — provided you apply the fundamentals. Weighted stretches, lengthened partials, standard lifts — all can drive hypertrophy when overloaded progressively. The only difference? Which one you (or your client) actually enjoy enough to do well, repeatedly. So stop selling your preference as a universal truth. It’s not science — it’s marketing. And ironically, you’ll attract more people when you admit that.

This short clip is from an entire section discussing Angular Alignment and Misalignment. It comes from Chapter 6, which covers strength profiles within my Applied Hypertrophy Biomechanics course. Within my @hypertrophycoachuniversity This is one of those topics that the average lifter does not need to fully understand AT ALL. But if you are a trainer or coach, your job is literally to prescribe force to another person’s body. And in my opinion, you should fully understand what you are applying and how it will affect the individual you are applying it to. Right now, it is very popular for influencers to parrot terms like internal moment arms in relation to exercise selection. In reality, this is only one very small component of what makes up your body’s strength. When we talk about how a body is able to express strength over a given range of motion, that is where the term “strength profile” actually comes from. This video discusses a factor (alignment) that is just as quantitative and just as important as internal moment arms, using something like chest training as an example. The beauty of fully understanding things like alignment is that when you actually understand it, it is not some vague bodybuilding jargon. It is something you can put hard, quantitative numbers behind. Once you understand that, you can then see how it applies to real movement, especially something like chest training, where almost no movement is purely horizontal adduction or purely shoulder flexion. It is nearly always a combination of both. When you determine arm path and the direction of resistance, you can start to put very real numbers behind what can and cannot work. Concepts like this tend to have the most practical value in body parts like the chest, which are large, “fan-shaped” muscles that cross joints with a large range of motion (continued in comments)

Strong is impressive. But strength alone does not build an elite physique. This is where most lifters get stuck. They chase numbers for years. Add plates to the bar. Celebrate PRs. Yet visually? They look… unchanged. Because strength is largely neurological. Improved motor unit recruitment. Better intermuscular coordination. Increased efficiency under load. You can get significantly stronger without dramatically changing your structure. Aesthetics require tissue adaptation. That means hypertrophy. And hypertrophy isn’t one-dimensional. There are two primary drivers: Myofibrillar hypertrophy → Increasing the density and contractile strength of muscle fibres via progressive mechanical tension. Sarcoplasmic hypertrophy → Increasing cellular volume, glycogen storage capacity, metabolic expansion and overall fullness. Most people bias one. They either: Chase load endlessly (tension without fatigue management). Or chase pump endlessly (metabolic stress without measurable progression). Neither creates complete development. Balanced physiques are built through planned stimulus rotation. Structured overload phases. Planned volume phases. Fatigue managed intentionally. Performance tracked objectively. This is exactly why ETS Training™ exists. Weeks 1–3: Mechanical tension prioritised. Progressive overload tracked. Execution to true failure. Week 4: Higher volume. Metabolic stress. Joint stress reduced. Systemic fatigue managed. Then we rotate. And repeat. Not because it sounds advanced. But because adaptation requires variation in stimulus, not randomness, but sequencing. The difference between looking strong… And looking elite… Is programming. If you’ve been training hard for years but still don’t look how you “should” for your effort… It’s not your work ethic. It’s your structure. Share this to your story if this hit. #ETSTraining #ElitePhysique #HypertrophyScience #EvolveMethod #TrainWithIntent

There is NO single “best” rep range for hypertrophy. . Anyone who says otherwise has never coached a significant amount of clients for a prolonged period of time. . Muscle can grow anywhere from 1–30 reps IF you can: ✔️ Train without pain ✔️ Maintain great technique ✔️ Get close to failure . For many lifters—especially over 40—higher reps aren’t “worse”… they’re SMARTER for CERTAIN EXERCISES. . Stop chasing “internet-optimal numbers”… And start training in the rep range(s) that FEEL right for your body and the specific exercise. . That’s experience-based truth.😉 . 👉 Save this if your joints matter more to you than fitness dogma.

If you’re using the same weight you did 6 months ago… you’re not “maintaining.” You’re stalling. Going up in weight isn’t ego lifting. It’s biology. Your muscles grow for one reason: they’re forced to adapt to a demand they’re not currently prepared for. That demand is called progressive overload. Here’s what actually happens when you increase the weight: More load = more mechanical tension Mechanical tension is the primary driver of hypertrophy. Heavier weight increases tension across muscle fibers, especially the high-threshold motor units that have the most growth potential. More load = more motor unit recruitment As weight increases, your nervous system recruits more muscle fibers to complete the task. Those larger, stronger fibers are the ones that grow the most. More load = stronger connective tissue Tendons, ligaments, and even bone density adapt to heavier stress over time. Getting stronger makes your entire structure more resilient. More load = higher growth ceiling If you never get stronger at 8 to 12 reps, you limit how much stimulus you can create long term. A stronger muscle can handle more volume, more tension, and ultimately build more size. But here’s the key: Progressive overload doesn’t mean jumping 30 pounds and ruining your form. It means earning the right to move up. When you can control the weight. When you can own the reps. When your technique is locked in. Then you increase the load and force adaptation. Muscle isn’t built by comfort. It’s built by progression.

Muscle doesn’t grow because you “feel the burn.” It grows because you increase its cross-sectional area. Here’s what that actually means: • More contractile proteins (actin + myosin)
• More myofibrils packed in parallel
• Greater force potential per fiber Mechanical tension activates mTOR → increases muscle protein synthesis → satellite cells donate nuclei → the fiber expands. Early strength gains are neural. 🧠 
Long-term strength gains are structural. 💪 Bigger cross-sectional area = more cross-bridges = more force. Train with intention. 
Progress the stress.

How High-Intent Isometrics Drive Fast-Twitch Recruitment 🧠Intent + Maximal Voluntary Contraction (MVC) Overrides External Load Motor unit recruitment is governed by required force output of a given task, not the absolute external load (weight on a bar, etc.). 🔺When you perform an isometric with maximal or near-maximal voluntary intent (MVC), the nervous system attempts to generate high force output, regardless of movement. This contrasts with more “traditional strength training” where the output varies as the movement is performed. 🔺EMG studies consistently show that maximal isometric contractions produce motor unit firing rates comparable to heavy dynamic contractions. 🔺High neural drive alone can force recruitment of high-threshold (fast-twitch) motor units. This aligns fully with Henneman’s Size Principle; it’s not violated, it’s completed because force demand is high. ⏳Fatigue-Driven Recruitment During Long Holds 🔹During long-duration, high-intensity isometrics, fatigue becomes a second driver of fast-twitch recruitment. Mechanism: -Initially, lower-threshold (slow-twitch) units are recruited (Size Principle) -As they fatigue, additional higher-threshold motor units must be recruited to maintain force -This occurs even if absolute force output is constant 🔹This phenomenon is well documented in sustained isometric tasks: -Progressive increases in EMG amplitude over time -Increased firing rates and recruitment of larger motor units ⚡️Force Amplitude at the Tissue Level (Not the External Load) In extreme isometrics or yielding/overcoming positions (each shown in the reel): 🔸Muscle-tendon units can experience very high internal tension; especially at longer muscle lengths or mechanically disadvantaged joint angles 🔸This is relevant as fast-twitch fibers are preferentially recruited when high force per fiber is required -Long muscle lengths increase passive tension and cross-bridge strain -The CNS compensates by increasing neural drive; even with “no movement,” internal force amplitude can be extremely high. 🗣️Dan Fichter 💬More in comments 💥DM or comment “ISO” to get my isometric program for 30% off!
